Asymmetric power dissipation in electronic transport through a quantum point contact
We investigate the power dissipated by an electronic current flowing through a quantum point contact in a two-dimensional electron gas. Based on the Landauer-Büttiker approach to quantum transport, we evaluate the power that is dissipated on the two sides of the constriction as a function of the Fe...
